Roofer nails testicle to roof

An Austrian workman who slipped while working on a house nailed his own testicle to the roof with a nail gun.

August Voegl, 59, from Jennersdorf, shot the four-inch nail into his left testicle with the compressed air nail gun.

He was unable to extract it or pull himself away from the roof.
Emergency medics were called in to separate the man from the roof after which he was airlifted to a nearby hospital where he is reportedly recovering well after surgery.

How in the name of all that is holy can one be “recovering well” after performing a bloody near gonadectomy on onesself?

A bit of WD40 and a spanner would have loosened that nut.

No way can a man “accidently” nail his nut to a roof! He’s only trying to get some attention. Take no notice of him, everyone! He’ll come down on his own….:-)
